Puppy back with its owner

The story of a puppy that was taken by some people from Poulsbo had a happy ending.

A man reported to police that while he was in Safeway shopping, someone took his little white female Husky pup named “Sage.”

A review of a security tape showed that the dog jumped out of the back of a vehicle and went underneath it. Two people coaxed it out, and then took it.

An Electric City woman reported that she saw the people earlier in the day at the veterinarian’s office. After reviewing the tape, the officer stated in his report that he had seen the couple earlier at a local restaurant.

The officer pursued the incident and found that the party had used their credit card at the restaurant and also found the type of vehicle they were driving.

The officer returned to Safeway and was met by a woman who told him that she had got her puppy back. She said she confronted the couple coming out of Safeway and got her dog with the curly tail and a little bit of brown on its ears from the couple who took it.

She said that the couple drove away and that she didn’t want to press charges.
